Section 3: Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation
This section had a combination of QA questions and DI sets. Most of the questions are from the easy and moderate levels of difficulty.
The distribution of questions across areas of QA was as below
| Topic | No. of Qs | Level of Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Clocks | 1 | Difficult |
| Data Sufficiency | 1 | Moderate |
| Functions | 1 | Easy |
| Geometry & Mensuration | 1 | Moderate |
| Heights & Distances | 1 | Moderate |
| Inequalities | 1 | Difficult |
| Numbers | 4 | Easy-Moderate |
| Percentages, Profit & Loss | 1 | Moderate |
| Probability | 1 | Moderate |
| Progressions | 2 | Moderate-Difficult |
| Quadratic Equations | 1 | Easy |
| Simple Equations | 1 | Moderate |
There were not many difficult questions, making questions selection the key aspect in getting good scores in this section. Many questions were on familiar lines needing not much of working out.
There were four DI sets of three questions each. The sets were of the following types
| Topic | No. of Qs | Level of Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Table (Correct Answers) | 3 | Difficult |
| Bar graph (Broken Pencils ) | 3 | Moderate-Difficult |
| Line (Universities) | 3 | Moderate-difficult |
| Candlestick Chart (Stock prices) | 3 | Moderate |
While the candlestick chart was a new type, understanding the chart was easy with the information given in the set.
Given the lesser number of difficult questions, the overall difficulty level of this section is lower than that of the last year.
